I would highly recommend Lee and his company. He went out of his way to come and help me today after discovering that my drains were blocked. Considering it was a last minute call out, he kept in touch with me throughout the day to advise when he would be coming. I felt reassured that he was definitely coming out. When he arrived, he was quick to assess and sort the problem out, explained where the blockage was and what course of action needed to be taken. He also got in touch with Severn Trent Water as they would be needed to come out to sort the issue out. Great communication and helped ease my doubts that I do not have any serious issues. Would highly recommend! I’ve received a great service. Thank you. ~ Taljinder T
Lee gave a qoute over the phone and described the work to be done. As agreed attended site the next day and cleaned blockages in drain then carried out camera survey and explained all the faults that were found in detail and how they could be rectified. Lee was very respectful and polite. Lee gave the option of the less expensive camera survey to find out faults and is really knowledgeable. Costs to do survey/cleaning works was very reasonable. Reactive Drains also carry out remedial works,drain installations. We are awaiting remedial works qoute to rectify defects and additional work later on. Would definitely recommend and deal with again - Thank you. ~ Arm M
Lee sorted our leaking bath out quickly and efficiently. The bath had leaked down into the living room. Lee responded to our request for help in a reasonable time and was able to identify the problem very quickly ( faulty seal) We were very happy as we had anticipated a complicated repair. He only charged us a small call-out fee. Very relieved and delighted with the outcome. Lee had previously sorted out our kitchen drain, this was done quickly and at a very reasonable price as he sent his camera down and then blasted away the problem. No recurrence since. Again, we were anticipating more drastic and expensive work. I highly recommend Lees work. He is now our ‘go to’ plumber. ~ Frances D
I would like to thank Lee and his team for the underground camera assessment that they carried out on the damaged drains at my property. They inspired total confidence by quickly identifying the issues that were causing a severe case of damp and rot in a corner of the kitchen - and you relax knowing that they're professionals in this area with many years experience at what can be a stressful time for yourself. Not only that but they took the time to show me the camera video footage, patiently explaining at each step what the images were highlighting. As a bonus they're very friendly and approachable guys! ~ Tim L
An excellent service provided by Lee. Responded quickly to our non-emergency call regarding a blocked drain. Did an exhaustive survey and diagnosed the problem. Followed up with a very reasonable quote to carry out a full drain replacement and scheduled the work quickly. Work was carried out efficiently and considerately, resulting in a positive result. We would absolutely recommend Lee and Reactive Drains- so nice to have a positive experience with a contractor and he’s now on my speed dial for future issues if they occur. Thank you Lee (and Tony)! ~ Nathan D
Reactive Drains provided an excellent service this morning we had a blocked drain. Tony arrived promptly at 9 am and was calm, polite, and professional throughout. He greeted us, listened carefully to the problem, and reassured us before getting straight to work. Within minutes, he had unblocked the drain and even took the time to give the other pipes a thorough clean. We were very impressed with his professionalism and outstanding customer service. Thank you, Tony you are truly an asset to Reactive drains. ~ Naz N
If I can give Reactive Drains 10 star I would, they are worth every penny. They know exactly what they are doing. I had 3 other companies who come out and struggled, to tackle the Issue, my cast iron soil stack, clog was at such awkward angle. Reactive Drains went above and beyond with their camera, jet and snake. Most importantly the experience and knowledge is worth more than the other companies I used. For me Reactive Drains have to Be NO.1 in Birmingham when it comes to drainage work. ~ Moomin M
I had a blocked drainage issue outside my property and contacted Reactive Drains Birmingham in the morning. Later that same day, a specialist Lee arrived with his assistant and quickly resolved the problem. They worked efficiently, professionally, and effectively. The pricing was excellent, and I was very impressed with their prompt response and quality of service. I highly recommend them for any drainage issues! A+++ ~ Sandija H
Great service. Found Reactive Drains when doing an internet search for a plumber who can deal with a blockage/drainage issue where rods were needed urgently. Lee was able to fit us in within a couple of hours of my call and managed to rod the pipes, did a camera feed to see where the blockage was as it was not straightforward and succeeded in clearing the blockage. Really nice guy, great job and very professional. Mark & Nic ~ Nicola C
Woke up to a blocked drain (I suspect it’s been like it for a couple of days) so contacted Reactive Drains. Answered first time and got me sorted in the same day. Nice gent, explained the situation and the work carried out Vs. the work that might be needed if it is a reoccurring issue. Would recommend, would use again and price was right. Thank you for your help. ~ Samuel E
Lee came to my parents house this week to assist them with a soggy area they had found in the garden. They contacted Lee who came very quickly and diagnosed a broken pipe which he rectified very quickly by lining the pipe. Throughout his communication was first class, he was approachable & made my parents feel confident he would do a good job - as he did. Would recommended. ~ Sam W
Called Lee today, as outside drain was blocked. Lee came round within half an hour of the call. Started work straight away, unblocked drain. Price he quoted on phone was the price he charged.Well worth the money,would recommend Lee to anybody who requires help in unblocking drains. Thanks a million for your help. ~ Craig H
Great service from Reactive Drains! They came to help unblock my drain today exactly when they said they would (which was within 30 minutes of my phone call) and were very helpful and pleasant to deal with. Everything was working again with the hour. I thoroughly recommend them if you need help with your drains. ~ Nicholas
As a business owner I can assure you Lee is your best bet, no BS sort of guy with reasonable prices. Anyone above him on Google just charges you the earth to cover their massive marketing budgets, I’ll choose local humble tradesmen every time over big business that take the mic. It’s not the economy for unaffordable prices ~ Your S
We were having a recurring problem with our drain that kept blocking up. Lee came out the same day, cleared the blockage and identified what the underlying issue was very quickly. He explained everything and recommended a solution going forward. Very friendly and approachable and a super quick, fairly priced service ~ sally J
Don’t waste your time getting quotes from other companies. I have used many companies for drain blockages at my business sites but these guys are by far the best. Just happened to find there contact details on Google. Great price, clean job and brilliant customer service . Highly recommend this company. ~ 999 A
Found Reactive Drains on Google, read Checkatrade reviews and phoned this morning at 9.36am for a block drain. Lee called and messaged back straight away to confirm he would come out this morning. Drains all cleared and unblocked by 11.20am. Excellent service and fair price for service. One less thing to worry about over Christmas. Thanks Lee. ~ Tim H
Came out within half an hour of me calling because it was close of business on Saturday of the bank holiday weekend and he didn’t want to leave me with the problem over the weekend. Job done quickly and all sorted. (Photos before and after but other way round ) Thank you 🙂 ~ maria l
Great efficient service: Called Lee at the weekend - arrived at the quoted time. He couldn't complete the job on the visit due to additional issues identified. He returned promptly the next morning and completed the job to a very high standard! Thanks Lee! ~ Ashley W
Lee @ Reactive Drains unblocked our outside kitchen drain this week. Excellent job, came within a few hours from my call. Very professional and polite. Will definitely keep their number in my mobile just in case. Without doubt would recommend their services. ~ Ian H
Came out to try to sort out drains/sewer blockages very promptly CCTV showed the extent of the problem, so they will send me a quote for the extensive work but I do have every confidence in Lees professionalism to get the job done honestly and fairly ~ martin v
I had a problem with a blocked drain. I called this company and Lee attended in about an hour. Price was quoted and agreed before any work carried out.
